Gary Numan | Cars | 1979 | Synth Lead | "I still like to use the ARP Odyssey because it has the best window-shaking bottom end of any synth." - Gary Numan | YouTube |
George Duke | Funny Funk | 1974 | Bass/Synth Lead | Album: Feel ”He (Frank Zappa) told me one day, that I should play synthesizers. It was as simple as that! I finally settled on ... an ARP Odyssey. I decided to use an ARP, purely to be different from Jan Hammer, who was playing the Mini Moog, and had a head start on me in the mastery of synthesis. I was really drawn to the possibilities inherent therein. There were some things that were a drag also! Remember, at this time there were no presets or ways of saving patches. Not only that, but you were limited to one note at a time. So overdubbing, a good memory and management system became very important. The year was 1974.” |
